In this paper we present a novel face classification system
where we represent face images as a spatial arrangement
of image patches, and seek a smooth non-linear functional
map...
This paper discusses the question: Can we improve the recognition of objects by using their spatial context? We start from Bag-of-Words models and use the Pascal 2007 dataset. We u...

Our objective is to obtain a state-of-the art object category
detector by employing a state-of-the-art image classifier
to search for the object in all possible image subwindows....

Generally the bag-of-words based image representation
follows a bottom-up paradigm. The subsequent stages of the
process: feature detection, feature description, vocabulary

Many classes of images have the characteristics of sparse structuring of statistical dependency and the presence of conditional independencies among various groups of variables. S...
